Ensure the kernel correctly switches VSX registers correctly. VSX
registers are all volatile, and despite the kernel preserving VSX
across syscalls, it doesn't have to. Test that during interrupts and
timeslices ending the VSX regs remain the same.

Resolve the merge conflict between Felix's/my and Toke's patches
coming into the tree through net and mac80211-next respectively.
Most of Felix's changes go away due to Toke's new infrastructure
work, my patch changes to "goto begin" (the label wasn't there
before) instead of returning NULL so flow control towards drivers
is preserved better.

nf_log_proc_dostring() used current's network namespace instead of the one
corresponding to the sysctl file the write was performed on. Because the
permission check happens at open time and the nf_log files in namespaces
are accessible for the namespace owner, this can be abused by an
unprivileged user to effectively write to the init namespace's nf_log
sysctls.

====================
net/ncsi: NCSI Improvment and bug fixes
This series of patches improves NCSI stack according to the comments
I received after the NCSI code was merged to 4.8.rc1:
* PATCH[1/8] fixes the build warning caused by xchg() with ia64-linux-gcc.
The atomic operations are removed. The NCSI's lock should be taken when
reading or updating its state and chained state.
* Channel ID (0x1f) is the reserved one and it cannot be valid channel ID.
So we needn't try to probe channel whose ID is 0x1f. PATCH[2/8] and
PATCH[3/8] are addressing this issue.
* The request IDs are assigned in round-robin fashion, but it's broken.
PATCH[4/8] make it work.
* PATCH[5/8] and PATCH[6/8] reworks the channel monitoring to improve the
code readability and its robustness.
* PATCH[7/8] and PATCH[8/8] introduces ncsi_stop_dev() so that the network
device can be closed and opened afterwards. No error will be seen.
Changelog
=========
v2:
* The NCSI's lock is taken when reading or updating its state as the
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE() isn't reliable.

to stop the NCSI device so that it can be reenabled in future. This
API should be called when the network device driver is going to

the channel monitoring; Reset channels to inactive state; Report

The original NCSI channel monitoring was implemented based on a
backoff algorithm: the GLS response should be received in the
specified interval. Otherwise, the channel is regarded as dead
and failover should be taken if current channel is an active one.
There are several problems in the implementation: (A) On BCM5718,
we found when the IID (Instance ID) in the GLS command packet
changes from 255 to 1, the response corresponding to IID#1 never
comes in. It means we cannot make the unfair judgement that the
channel is dead when one response is missed. (B) The code's
readability should be improved. (C) We should do failover when
current channel is active one and the channel monitoring should
be marked as disabled before doing failover.
This reworks the channel monitoring to address all above issues.
The fields for channel monitoring is put into separate struct
and the state of channel monitoring is predefined. The channel
is regarded alive if the network controller responses to one of
two GLS commands or both of them in 5 seconds.

There is only one NCSI request property for now: the response for
the sent command need drive the workqueue or not. So we had one
field (@driven) for the purpose. We lost the flexibility to extend
NCSI request properties.

and NCSI command argument struct. Each bit of the newly introduced
field can be used for one property. No functional changes introduced.

The NCSI request index (struct ncsi_request::id) is put into instance
ID (IID) field while sending NCSI command packet. It was designed the
available IDs are given in round-robin fashion. @ndp->request_id was
introduced to represent the next available ID, but it has been used
as number of successively allocated IDs. It breaks the round-robin
design. Besides, we shouldn't put 0 to NCSI command packet's IID
field, meaning ID#0 should be reserved according section 6.3.1.1
in NCSI spec (v1.1.0).
This fixes above two issues. With it applied, the available IDs will
be assigned in round-robin fashion and ID#0 won't be assigned.

xchg() is used to set NCSI channel's state in order for consistent
access to the state. xchg()'s return value should be used. Otherwise,
one build warning will be raised (with -Wunused-value) as below message
indicates. It is reported by ia64-linux-gcc (GCC) 4.9.0.

This is a respin of a patch to fix a relatively easily reproducible kernel
panic related to the all_adj_list handling for netdevs in recent kernels.
The following sequence of commands will reproduce the issue:
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.100 type vlan id 100
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.200 type vlan id 200
ip link add name testbr type bridge
ip link set eth0.100 master testbr
ip link set eth0.200 master testbr
ip link add link testbr mac0 type macvlan
ip link delete dev testbr
This creates an upper/lower tree of (excuse the poor ASCII art):
/---eth0.100-eth0
mac0-testbr-
\---eth0.200-eth0
When testbr is deleted, the all_adj_lists are walked, and eth0 is deleted twice from
the mac0 list. Unfortunately, during setup in __netdev_upper_dev_link, only one
reference to eth0 is added, so this results in a panic.
This change adds reference count propagation so things are handled properly.
Matthias Schiffer reported a similar crash in batman-adv:

Much of the signal code takes a pt_regs on which it operates. Over
time the signal code has needed to know more about the thread than
what pt_regs can supply, this information is obtained as needed by
using 'current'.
This approach is not strictly incorrect however it does mean that
there is now a hard requirement that the pt_regs being passed around
does belong to current, this is never checked. A safer approach is for
the majority of the signal functions to take a task_struct from which
they can obtain pt_regs and any other information they need. The
caveat that the task_struct they are passed must be current doesn't go
away but can more easily be checked for.
Functions called from outside powerpc signal code are passed a pt_regs
and they can confirm that the pt_regs is that of current and pass
current to other functions, furthurmore, powerpc signal functions can
check that the task_struct they are passed is the same as current
avoiding possible corruption of current (or the task they are passed)
if this assertion ever fails.

After a thread is reclaimed from its active or suspended transactional
state the checkpointed state exists on CPU, this state (along with the
live/transactional state) has been saved in its entirety by the
reclaiming process.
There exists a sequence of events that would cause the kernel to call
one of enable_kernel_fp(), enable_kernel_altivec() or
enable_kernel_vsx() after a thread has been reclaimed. These functions
save away any user state on the CPU so that the kernel can use the
registers. Not only is this saving away unnecessary at this point, it
is actually incorrect. It causes a save of the checkpointed state to
the live structures within the thread struct thus destroying the true
live state for that thread.

giveup_all() causes FPU/VMX/VSX facilities to be disabled in a threads
MSR. If the thread performing the giveup was transactional, the kernel
must record which facilities were in use before the giveup as the
thread must have these facilities re-enabled on return to userspace.
>From process.c:
/*
* This is called if we are on the way out to userspace and the
* TIF_RESTORE_TM flag is set. It checks if we need to reload

Comment from arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c:967:
If userspace is inside a transaction (whether active or
suspended) and FP/VMX/VSX instructions have ever been enabled
inside that transaction, then we have to keep them enabled
and keep the FP/VMX/VSX state loaded while ever the transaction
continues. The reason is that if we didn't, and subsequently
got a FP/VMX/VSX unavailable interrupt inside a transaction,
we don't know whether it's the same transaction, and thus we
don't know which of the checkpointed state and the ransactional
state to use.
restore_math() restore_fp() and restore_altivec() currently may not
restore the registers. It doesn't appear that this is more serious
than a performance penalty. If the math registers aren't restored the
userspace thread will still be run with the facility disabled.
Userspace will not be able to read invalid values. On the first access
it will take an facility unavailable exception and the kernel will
detected an active transaction, at which point it will abort the
transaction. There is the possibility for a pathological case
preventing any progress by transactions, however, transactions
are never guaranteed to make progress.

If the capi link is going down while the PSL owns a dirty cache line,
any access from the host for that data could lead to an Uncorrectable

So when resetting the capi adapter through sysfs, make sure the PSL
cache is flushed. It won't help if there are any active Process
Elements on the card, as the cache would likely get new dirty cache
lines immediately, but if resetting an idle adapter, it should avoid
any bad surprises from data left over from terminated Process Elements.

because high-speed signals come with a price. That price is an assortment of
interference problems like ringing on the line, signal overshoot and
undershoot, extended signal settling times, crosstalk noise, transmission
line reflections, false signal detection by the receiving device and
electromagnetic interference (EMI) -- all of which can negate the potential
gains designers are seeking when they try to increase system speeds through
the use of higher performance logic devices. The fact is, faster signaling
edge rates can cause a higher level of electrical noise or other type of
interference that can actually lead to slower line speeds and lower maximum
system frequencies. This parameter allow the board designers to change the
driving strange, and thereby change the EMI behavioral.
Edge-rate parameters (vddmac, edge-slowdown) get from Device Tree.
Tested on Beaglebone Black with VSC 8531 PHY.

vmxnet3_reset_work() expects tx queues to be stopped (via
vmxnet3_quiesce_dev -> netif_tx_disable). However, this races with the
netif_wake_queue() call in netif_tx_timeout() such that the driver's
start_xmit routine may be called unexpectedly, triggering one of the BUG_ON

That just generally kills the machine, and makes debugging only much
harder, since the traces may long be gone.
Debugging by assert() is a disease. Don't do it. If you can continue,
you're much better off doing so with a live machine where you have a
much higher chance that the report actually makes it to the system logs,
rather than result in a machine that is just completely dead.
The only valid situation for BUG_ON() is when continuing is not an
option, because there is massive corruption. But if you are just
verifying that something is true, you warn about your broken assumptions
(preferably just once), and limp on.

100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-10-02
This series contains updates to fm10k only.
Jake fixes an issue where PTP applications requesting software timestamps
may complain that the requested mode is not supported, so add a generic
callback for those drivers that have software transmit timestamp support
enabled. Then provides a trivial cleanup where a code was not wrapped
properly. Got make sure that code looks good in a 80 character limit.

Although rare, it's possible to hit PCI error early on device
probe, meaning possibly some structs are not entirely initialized,
and some might even be completely uninitialized, leading to NULL
pointer dereference.
The i40e driver currently presents a "bad" behavior if device hits
such early PCI error: firstly, the struct i40e_pf might not be
attached to pci_dev yet, leading to a NULL pointer dereference on
access to pf->state.
Even checking if the struct is NULL and avoiding the access in that
case isn't enough, since the driver cannot recover from PCI error
that early; in our experiments we saw multiple failures on kernel
log, like:
[549.664] i40e 0007:01:00.1: Initial pf_reset failed: -15
[549.664] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -15
[...]
[871.644] i40e 0007:01:00.1: The driver for the device stopped because the
device firmware failed to init. Try updating your NVM image.
[871.644] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -32
[...]
[872.516] i40e 0007:01:00.0: ARQ: Unknown event 0x0000 ignored
Between the first probe failure (error -15) and the second (error -32)
another PCI error happened due to the first bad probe. Also, driver
started to flood console with those ARQ event messages.
This patch will prevent these issues by allowing error recovery
mechanism to remove the failed device from the system instead of
trying to recover from early PCI errors during device probe.

40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-10-03
This series contains fixes to i40e only.
Stefan Assmann provides the changes in this series to resolve an issue
where when we run out of MSIx vectors, iWARP gets disabled automatically.
First adds a check for "no vectors left" during MSIx vector allocation
for VMDq, which will prevent more vectors being allocated than available.
Then fixed the MSIx vector redistribution when we reach the hardware limit
for vectors so that additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc do not get
starved for vectors because the PF is hogging all the resources. Lastly,
fix the issue for flow director by moving the check for the reaching the
vector limit earlier in the code so that a decision can be made on
disabling flow director.

====================
qed*: Add qedr infrastructure support
In the last couple of weeks we've been sending RFCs for the qedr
driver - the RoCE driver for QLogic FastLinQ 4xxxx line of adapters.
Latest RFC can be found at [1].
At Doug's advice [2], we've decided to split the series into two:
- first part contains the qed backbone that's necessary for all the
configurations relating to the qedr driver, as well as the qede
infrastructure that is used for communication between the qedr and qede.
- Second part consists of the actual qedr driver and introduces almost
no changes to qed/qede.
This is the first of said two parts. The second half would be sent
later this week.
The only 'oddity' in the devision are the Kconfig options -
As this series introduces both LL2 and QEDR-based logic in qed/qede,
I wanted to add the CONFIG_INFINIBAND_QEDR option here [with default n].
Otherwise, a lot of the code introduced would be dead-code [won't even
be compiled] until qedr is accepted.
As a result I've placed the config option in an odd place - under
qlogic's Kconfig. The second series would then remove that option
and add it in its correct place under the infiniband Kconfig.
[I'm fine with pushing it there to begin with, but I didn't want to
'contaminate' non-qlogic configuration files with half-baked options].
Dave - I don't think you were E-mailed with Doug's suggestion.
I think the notion was to have the two halves accepted side-by-side,
but actually the first has no dependency issues, so it's also
possible to simply take this first to net-next, and push the qedr
into rdma once it's merged. But it's basically up to you and Doug;
We'd align with whatever suits you best.
